About 9 months ago, my friend really encouraged me to listen to the podcast Serial. I was hesitant to start because I wasn’t sure if the podcast could truly keep me hooked. Turns out, it hooked me hard and fast. Serial is an amazing podcast where a crime journalist pieces together the existing evidence of a murder case that happened 15 years ago in America to see if the man who was convicted was truly guilty. A young teenage girl went missing and was found dead and her ex-boyfriend , another teenager at the time, was suspected and sent to prison.
Oh, it was such a good podcast! I truly recommend it to anyone who loves crime, and the whole story takes on another level because it really did happen and you hear the voices of many people involved (including the man who supposedly killed the girl).
From there, I became really interested 
in the podcast game. For the past 6+ months I have been devouring Stuff Mom Never Told You episodes. It’s a podcast run by two feminist women who discuss a multitude of topics with gender in mind. They always come well-researched and also share personal anecdotes. It’s always fun and educational to listen to and because of that I’ve learned a lot. It’s fantastic for both men and women.
I also listen to Savage Lovecast sometimes. It’s a podcast run by sex columnist Dan Savage. It is normally full of people ringing Dan up asking for love/sex advice. I find it particularly interesting as I am considering to go down the sex therapist career path.

No, I never have enough hours in a day but I know there are many that would interest me. ❤
I normally listen to them while I’m driving or on the train. I don’t have time to sit down and set time for them, but they make commuting/travelling so much more enjoyable.
I don’t commute or travel much. I agree, that’s the perfect time to listen. I used to listen to CDs when I went to visit my mother in another town about an hour away, but that’s long ago now. Forgot all about that. Thanks for the memories. ❤
Aw. I’m glad our conversation was able to spark memories. I know sometimes I listen to them when I shower, just another suggestion. 😛 It really depends on how your shower/bath situation is set up though.
Great suggestions. Nowadays, my problem is I concentrate better on the words when I read them than listen. Didn’t used to be this way. Sigh.
I listen to Northern Soul and replays of BBC radio dramas mostly. Usually as audio wallpaper though.
Cool. 🙂 By audio wallpaper do you mean that they’re in the background but you’re not paying all your attention to them?
That’s about it.
